Are In the mind. till vivifying Love.

| Which. fed aud cultured, grows to its own
Like developed and harmonious spirit,

Suggestion Is the law of Poetry.
Poetry Is the spirits lightning, which reveals,
BY vivid flashes Of electric thought.
| That dread. divine gratuity named life;
Fathomless yearnings, mysteries Infinite,

The Heavens commune In musical discourse;
All lives must live to music Or must perish;
The law Of deathless life Is Harmony.

somewhat different from what it has
been. and it is my duty to have you
put in solitary confinement and a
guard placed at your cell.
Cluyerius looked up at Scrgt Lee
and replied:
Sergeant, | make no objection.
I have tried not to give trouble to
any one in this Jail and | will CON
tinuc to do SO. !"
The prisoner was next sentenced 70
he hanged on the Goth Of December
last. Everything possible was done
to save him from the gallows. Peti-
.tions were circulated over various
parts of the State and large number
Of signatures were secured. Judge
Hinton's dissenting opinion, which
held to the suicidal theory, and the
failure to make the chain of circum-
stances complete, was printed. One
Juror was found who had expressed
himself in favor of hanging the pris-
oncr before he served on the jury.
Other Jurors testified that they did not
understand the law, and were in favor
of making the verdict murder in the
second degree. At the earnest solicit
tation of the prisoners spiritual adj
wiser, Rev. DR.. Hatcher, Gov. Lee
respited the prisoner until Jan. ID
to-day. All efforts to secure further
respite failed.
Thomas j. Cluverius was about "a
years of age, and graduated from the
Richmond college He was a member
of the Baptist church, and was the as
sistant superintendent of Sunday
school at the time Of his arrest. For
some years prior to his arrest Cluve-
RUS lived with his aunt, Mrs. Jane
Tunstall, who educated him. His
parents are poor people, consequently
the heavy expenses incurred in the
trial were borne by Mrs. Tunstall,
who has spent nearly all her money in
his behalf. In return for this the
prisoner has written for publication a
book from the history of his life, the
proceeds from the sale of which goes
to repay his aunt. Ten thousand
of the books are to be printed, and it
is expected some $4,000 or $40, 900
will be realized from its sale. Mrs.
Tunstall and Willie Cluverius, the
prisoners brother, have virtually made
Richmond their home since the arrest,
and were unremitting in their visits
and labors for the condemned man.
The book is copyrighted, is being
printed in Richmond and already a
large number have been sold

The Bolivar bulletin. [volume] (Bolivar, Hardeman County, Tenn.) 1865-1888, 1887-02-18

The Governor ia his message calls
the attention Of lhc legislature to
the unsatisfactory operation Of our
present revenue laws, in thatit does
not rdcoct equally and alike all kinds
OF property and all classes OF citi-
zeus, and says. that the assessing OF
-yog erty, as now pracliced under tie
law, is attended with grIevous abu-
sss aud much injustice. There Is
great complaint from all portions Ct
lie state that real estate il not equal
ly and fairly assessed, that small
properties are taxed their fall value
while large estates are taxed ut less
than half their value, and personal
property escapes taxation almost al
together: Consequently the Princi-
pal burdens rest upon the farmers
and small real e state owners. This
Is evident from tile fact that while
the assessment on real estate 10 nearly
100000, 900, that ON personal
property is only about SIG, 900, GOO.
This is an alarming state Of facts,
bat never the less true, and the
legislature should try and dsyise
some methou by winch all pro pesty
personal and rea' should be taxed
alike and at its value.
The Governor concludes by say
ing Jhat, "the difficulties surround
ing this question constitute an Old
problem--a problem never yet salts
tactorily solved; but this is no reason
why you should not solve it, or at
least make an effort to improve our
system Of taxation.
